Overview

An English based Goth Rock band founded in 1981 in the city of Manchester, UK[1],. Mangled After Dinner reached a small but loyal community of fans and played an overly gloomy sound, using synthesizer effects and well-written lyrics of exceptionally romantic poetry. Their major themes included: rainstorms, dark forests, abandoned castles, english folklore and the pursuit of answers through solitude and disbelievement.

The band was formed by:

  • Trevor "Poeraver" Chadwick - vocals (1959–1989)
  • Henry Lansford - guitar (1961-)
  • Frederick "Fred" Ritchen - bass (1961-)
  • John "Johnny" Lansford - drums (1957-)

Their very first success was "Mangled After Dinner Ritual", recorded in Long Play with eight total tracks and a stylized black cover with a designed skull with a lit candle abovehead. The band disbanded in the late 80's, when Chadwick reportedly died in a horrible car crash near London (October, 1989).
